Future of Online Newspaper Doesn't Look Promising

I blogged last month about newspaper companies straggling to find new ideas and ways to market themselves over the Internet, but a recent blog shows that there isn't much hope for those ideas.

Newspapers were expecting to make print motions towards the Internet in hope that there would be a turn around in the circulation of their news but people are still not willing to pay for the news they're offering.

Unless you are a highly respected newspaper there isn't much success on the Internet. Many people will find similar stories that are free of charge that will have a greater appeal then paying for the outlets newspapers will or could offer.

With the news of this it is still difficult to know what is to come of those passionate about the newspaper as well as though who support the newspaper. It seems that with the Internet trend people of new generations do not feel the need to pay for news that is provided freely over the Internet promptly rather than daily.

I don't think they should give up on trying to find methods on making people pay for news. They will just need to keep on strategizing on ways to get all the news outlets involved in making their viewers pay for news. Laws could be put in place for anyone trying to get the free news out. It will be hard in coming up with a way that will work, but it will take time to get what will work.
